Hopefully, this will be the start to a better life. Man, you weigh the same as jk now.

Have no fear graedy, we'll try and put weight on together! (and actually set PR's )

Welcome back mate, your strength never ceases to amaze me!

I'm glad you are back and doing well. It looks like when I am in Germany, you will be in for surgery/recovery. Sucks man. If that isn't the case I'll have to stop by and get some advice on German beer and stuff to do.

Enjoy your sleep

Thanks to all of you guys. Feels good to be back.
I am still in a bit of a shock from the last 3 weeks. And I still cant believe I really made it.
The second surgery will be another big one. But I will be in a much better condition going into it.
The support from family and friends (including you guys) was enormous. From this standpoint it was a great experience. But from any other standpoint I wanna forget about those 3 weeks as fast as possible.

@ KEyser: Would be cool if you come arround. I probably wont have the next surgery before december.
